The block party will celebrate the commencement of New York Adorned’s Brooklyn studio scheduled to open its doors early September 2007. Only their second location, the Williamsburg studio is making history as the first full-service tattoo, piercing, and jewelry shop in Brooklyn.
Located on 376 Bedford St. between S. 4th Street & S. 5th Street, New York Adorned Brooklyn will set up shop in the up-and-coming south side of Williamsburg. In the tradition of the first store in Manhattan, owner and founder, Lori Leven, has assembled the most highly regarded team of talented artists to man the shop, including: award-winning tattoo artists, Chris O’Donnell, Horizakura (who specializes in traditional Japanese “tebori” handpoked tattooing), Kaz, and Timothy Hoyer. The store is poised to become Brooklyn’s body art tour-de-force. Leven says, "We wanted to bring the highest level of skill in the industry to Brooklyn. This is the ultimate in high-end body art and unique adornment."

About Lori Leven Jewelry (http://www.NYAJewelry.com
Lori Leven’s contemporary jewelry is known for its simple, wearable elegance and fine artisan approach. She works in both sterling silver, 14k rose and white gold, and 18k yellow gold, often applying surface texture that allows light to wonderfully reflect off each piece. Varied and unusual gems, collected from the designer’s extensive travels, often are incorporated into her streamline designs. Ancient tribal art such as the tattoo designs of the Marquesan Islands and the Maori of New Zealand serve as a tremendous wellspring of inspiration for Lori’s work. All of these elements combine to provide sculptural jewelry that has a powerful impact while maintaining an aesthetic of subtle beauty. Available at Ten Thousand Things and New York Adorned.
